45 I’ve Been Subdued by an NPC?
Ning Shi had no choice but to entertain the leaders. After seeing them off, he remembered that the school’s matters had been arranged and he had nothing to do for the time being. He said goodbye to Yun Moxiang and went straight back to the dormitory.
After listening to Hao Meng’s description of the beast disaster, Ning Shi felt a sense of danger.
He quickly entered the game and continued to increase his strength.
After not having a first-person view for a few days, Ning Shi took out his phone, clicked into the game, and first checked the system hack log.
[Avatar treated Snow Fog to a meal. Character intimacy +2. Current character intimacy: 57. ]
!!
[Avatar has explained the role of the Character Template to Snow Fog. Character intimacy +3. Current character intimacy: 60.]
[Avatar has gifted the bloodline staff found in the Bloodline Chambers of Commerce to Snow Fog. Character intimacy +5. Current character intimacy: 65.]
The corner of Ning Shi’s mouth twitched. Was this avatar a lecher or a bootlicker? Did he not do proper work every day?
The loyalty of a follower was full, but intimacy and loyalty were two different things.
Before, Ning Shi had suspected that the avatar approached Lena only because she was a hero, and that it was easier to trigger missions or level up faster by being on good terms with a hero.
But now, from the looks of it, the system hack’s avatar was simply just a flirt.
Fortunately, the avatar hack still did a lot of things.
[Avatar killed a Sun Elf mage. Experience points +4000.]
[Avatar killed a Moon Elf longbow ranger. Experience points +3000.]
…
[Avatar assisted Snow Fog in taking complete control of the Forest Night Song Chamber of Commerce. Ruling power increased by 10 streets. Snow Fog character intimacy +5. Current character intimacy: 70.]
[Avatar killed a wolf knight. Experience points +2000.]
[Avatar killed a griffin knight. Experience points +5000.]
[Avatar killed Gomis, leader of the Gryphon Legion. Experience points +10000.]
…
[Avatar has eliminated the Wolf Knight Legion and the Griffin Knight Legion of the Ole Empire. Ruling power increased by 10 streets.]
[Avatar destroyed the Abyss Mercenary Group. Ruling power increased by 2 streets.]
[Avatar destroyed the Bloodthirsty Beastman Chamber of Commerce. Ruling power increased by 1 street.]
…
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIn just a few days, the avatar had led the extreme battle group and swept through half of the forces in Duohuang, ruling over 53 streets in Duohuang.
Ning Shi was instantly satisfied. Although the system hack was indecent, it was still very efficient.
[Avatar killed a bear warrior. Experience points +2000.]
[Bloodline warrior has been upgraded to level 12 (1000/5120000). Spiritual power +1, skill point +1, potential point +1.]
As expected, war was the fastest way to level up. The avatar swept through Duohuang and killed many factions, leveling up once again.
It was getting harder and harder to improve his physique. This time, the level up had increased his spiritual power instead.
His spiritual power had reached 20 points. According to the game’s setting where every 10 points was a juncture, this was a huge increase.
He clicked on the synchronization, and his main body’s spiritual power also reached 20 points.
Ning Shi felt as if his entire body had sublimated. His soul felt a deep sense of satisfaction, as if he could resist all spiritual attacks.
His learning talent had turned golden, and his memory had become better. Many things in the past were like books in the library, which he could read and refer to at any time.
[His Highness Alesia, the third Prince of the Brad Empire, has come to deal with an Angelo’s murder under the orders of His Majesty Joerger, and the avatar has received him.]
[Alesia tried to recruit the avatar, but the avatar rejected.]
[Alesia once again tried to recruit the avatar. The avatar agreed and became Alesia’s subordinate.]
Ning Shi: “??? ”
What the hell was the system hack doing? Why would the avatar agree to Alesia’s recruitment?
He was just playing a game. Did he have to be subdued by the NPCs and become their slave?
Ning Shi patiently continued to read.
[Alesia has activated the power of his primordial weapon, Lionheart Blade. Bloodline servant contract is being forced to be signed. In comparison of spiritual power, Alesia’s spiritual power is 28, the avatar’s spiritual power is 20, and the success rate of the forced bloodline servant contract is 81%.]
[Bloodline servant contract successful. Avatar has become Alesia’s bloodline servant. There is an anomaly in the game system. In debugging… Avatar has broken free from the bloodline servant contract and is now free.]
Ning Shi was frightened by this log. What was the avatar doing? Was the system hack so stupid?
[If you have any objections to the system hack, please check the game mode reminder.]
In response to Ning Shi’s internal complaints, a dialog box actually popped up in the game. Ning Shi glanced at the game mode reminder.
[The system hack mode is recommended to be used to repeat mechanical processes. The game system is not responsible for any abnormal events that occur during complicated game processes.]
Alright, since the disclaimer was out, Ning Shi had nothing to say. Fortunately, the system found the mistake and finally corrected the forced contract.
Otherwise, after Ning Shi entered the game, he would have no choice but to pay the price of one point of spiritual power and commit suicide to get rid of his shackles.
Playing as an NPC’s servant in the game was a disgrace to the Fourth Calamity.
He continued to check the log.
[Avatar has used an observation spell on Alesia. The spirit power comparison is 20/28, and some basic information can be investigated.]
[Character: Alesia]
[Physique: 38 (50)]
[Spiritual Power: 28 (50)]
[Appearance: 9 (King’s Prestige)]
[Family Background: 9 (The King’s Son)]
[Bloodline: Golden-eyed Nine-eyed Lion (Level 6/Potential 10 stars)]
[Profession: Bloodline warrior level 26]
[Skills: Golden mech level 8, Golden eyes level 7…]
[Talents: Natural King (purple), Destiny (purple)…]
[Achievements: None ]
[Natural King (purple): As a Natural King character, you have a 25% absolute success rate when recruiting subordinates. The same character’s talent will lose its effect after three attempts.]
Ning Shi was numb. What kind of insane talent was this? Recruiting three times, there was an absolute success rate of 25% each time. For anyone, Alesia’s success rate was close to 60%.
It was no wonder that Alesia had successfully recruited the avatar. This was a weapon of causality.
Fortunately, Ning Shi had his own will. The recruitment was only agreed by the avatar, and he, the main body, had not agreed.
[Destiny (purple): The person chosen by the world’s will to be the destined one. He bears the destiny of unifying the world. ]
Ning Shi finally understood that Alesia’s existence was like a hack in this game world.
Not only was his talent amazing, but his physique and spiritual power added up to 66 points, higher than Ning Shi’s 60 points.
One had to know that there were potential points to be added to the game’s avatar.
According to the log, Alesia had another origin weapon, the Lionheart Blade, which could activate the skills of bloodline servants.
[Alesia mistook the avatar for his bloodline servant and revoked the Brad Empire’s contract to capture the avatar. He fully supports the avatar’s unification of Duohuang.]
Finally, there was good news.
With Alesia’s cover, the pressure on the avatar would be weaker for now. At least, the pressure from the Brad Empire’s side would be removed.
[Alesia has launched a fierce pursuit of your follower, Snow Fog, but Snow Fog is unmoved.]
[Alesia left Duohuang with regret and headed for the Duke of Rose’s territory.]
Duke of Rose’s territory, that’s where Lena lives. What is Alesia doing there?
After checking the system log, Ning Shi no longer hesitated. He directly entered the first perspective mode and regained control of the avatar from the system.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAt this moment, his avatar was eating in a tavern on Bloodline Street. Opposite him was the Star elf, Snow Fog.
Just as Ning Shi was about to speak, he found that there was a blood-red exclamation mark in the game mission area, and it was flashing constantly!
The mission exclamation mark was usually white in color and would not flash.
It seemed like a big mission had arrived.
[Must-kill mission: Seize Alesya’s primordial weapon – Lionheart Blade. The Lionheart Blade has already recognized its owner. You can only seize it after killing the owner. Mission time limit: 3 years. Punishment for failure: Spiritual power -10, Physique -20 ]
If he couldn’t complete the mission, the punishment would be too severe!
Ning Shi could feel the game system’s obsession with the Lionheart Blade. It seemed that this blade was very important. According to the description of the log, the ability of the bloodline servant caused an anomaly in the game system.
Fortunately, the time limit given by the system was three years, so he had more time.
Ning Shi still planned to unify Duohuang first and quickly level up. After accumulating his strength, he would go find trouble with Alesia.
The current Ning Shi might not even be able to beat Alesia in a one-on-one fight, so developing first was the best way.
Snow Fog had a petite figure. Today, she was wearing a blue hooded priest’s robe. Her entire body was wrapped in the robe, and only a strand of stubborn ahoge on her head was exposed outside the hat.
“Snow Fog, why are you dressed like this today?”
“Alesia has been annoying me too much, so I’m wearing this to avoid trouble. Boss, do you really want to be Alesia’s subordinate? My intuition tells me that he isn’t as gentle as he looks.”
Ning Shi used a fork to pick up a piece of tender juicy beef and put it into his mouth. Then, he picked up the fruit wine on the table and took a big gulp before saying, “Of course it’s not real. It’s just a plan to delay the enemy. After we unify the entire Duohuang, we’ll be surrounded and suppressed by three great empires.”
“At this time, if we pretend to accept Alesia’s recruitment, at least for the time being, the Brad Empire will support us.”
“Take off your hat. Alesia is gone, and you look like a punching bag hiding in those big clothes.”
Snow Fog took off her hat, revealing her delicate face.
Silver hair, orange-red eyes, a fair face, and thin, red lips. Ning Shi complimented her appearance in his heart. This was indeed the system’s approved dreamy face.
No wonder Alesia wanted to pursue Wuxue.
Snow Fog took a sip of her juice and asked with a frown, “Boss, if we do this, it’ll damage your reputation.”
“On the Moen Continent, those who betrayed their masters would be spurned.”
“And I’m worried that Alesia doesn’t really trust us.”
Ning Shi laughed, “Don’t worry, Alesia used the bloodline servant contract on me, and I found a way to avoid it. He still thinks I’m his bloodline servant and trusts me 100%.”
“As for betraying masters, there are two words in my hometown that I’ll teach you.
“The first was that there was no such thing as too much deception in war. In war, we have to use deception tactics as much as possible, and this has nothing to do with personal morality.
“The second one is called winner takes all. The winner wins everything. As long as we obtain the final victory, glory and reputation will be at our fingertips.”
Snow Fog’s eyes lit up. She, who was determined to take revenge, agreed with Ning Shi’s words.
[Snow Fog feels that what you said is very reasonable and has developed a sense of worship for you. Character intimacy +5. Current character intimacy level is 75.]
Ning Shi, “…”
